A LADY's 200 ToILErs.-As sample
specimen of single lady's-or, rather, of
one married lady's wardrobe, as yet
mostly unaired, let me refer to that cred
tied to Mrs VIM. Laytin, of New York,
who, with her husband, has just alighted
at the Grand Union 1t is rGmored that
the wardrobe of this pretty demi-blonde
consists of 200 costly and elaborate toilets.
Seventy are for outdoor wear, with
parasols, hats, fans, gloves and boots to cor
respond. Some of these costumes are said
to have cost the fabulous sum of from
800 to $4,000 each-real old black and
white thread laces, real round point, Ouch
esse and irish point laees. Her jewels are
also pronounced superb. Prince Albert
Victor, for a months stay at Gibraltar,
took eighty tons of baggage, and the anglo
maniacS cannot hope to compete with hin,
unless among that baggage were a yacht,
several dozens of assorted sizes of guns. his
family and servants, and several cases OF

A BULL FIGHTS WITH A JACKAss.-A
battle between a ijackass and bull. accord
ing to story published in the Cincinnati
Enquirer, is the latest diversion discovered
by the citizens of Kenton Postoffice, Ken
ton county, KY. Pole Harrison had a lit
tie "cedar-head" bull which another man
wagered his jackass could whip inside of
twenty minutes. The wager was sorrel
horse against $50. The battle was fought
at A. NJ. on the Oath. A red shirt was
tied around the jacks neck in order to in
cite the bull, but the ass made for the bull
first and bit him on the flank. The bull
retaliated by butting the jack on the shout
der. The two brutes got madden and mad
der and fought furiously, the jack using
his hoofs with effect and the bull his horns.
Finally the bulls horn penetrated the
jacks side, weakening the latter, but not so
much but that he kicked hard enough to
break two of the bulls ribs. Thus the
battle waged, until at the end of one hour
and twenty-five minutes both brutes sank
to the ground dying. They were then shot
The owner of the bull got the $50.

TnE KNIGHTS AND TEMPERANCE.
Master Workman Powderly and
those engaged with him i'll the
laudable effort to eliminate drink
ing men from the Knights of Labor
may have good effect on the or
der in the matter of increasing pop
ular respect for it, but they are
likely to reduce the membership
very much. The Germans will have
their larger, and the Irish must oc
casionally indulge in something
more stimulating than cold tea.
The church cannot prevent these
two races from drinking and it is
out of the question that Powderly
can do more in this respect than
priest and pastor. 1t is said that
large secessions of Germans have
already taken place, and more win
follow il the leaders persist IN the
enforcement of the newly adopted
rule that D man who uses intoxi-
cants cannot be Knight in good
standing. Powderly is undoubted-
" correct in theory. A drunken
man is a dangerous man in an or
ganization like that of the Knights;
a little whisky inan assembly viii
often lead to injury that weeks and
months of wise efforts cannot RENE
dy. But right in theory is some
times bad in practice. What the
Knights Of Labor need is members;
numbers are worth more to them
than morals and sobriety. With d
formidable membership they can
accomplish something, whether the
men are temperate or given to the
cup; while a handful of prohibition
lists viii be without power as a labor
organization.

THE Presidents little blunder in
ordering the restoration of the con-
federate flags, is creating more bad
feeling than such trifle justifies.
1t is reported in Washington that
the outcome has been that an un-
mlstakable hint has been given to
the Secretary of War that his place
is wanted for a more useful politi-
clan. We of course do not know
the truth of the rumor, but it is
clear, that this rebel flag business
has assumed such proportions that
a sacrifice must be made, and we
think Secretary of War Endicott
and General Drum might as well
pack their trunks and order the
necessary number OF army wagons
to cart them off to the most conve-
nient railroad depot for transpor-
tation to their respective homes.

WILp POLITICAL SPEcrLATIoNs.

WILD PoLrTIcAL SPEcrLATIoNs.
according to Greenback organ
it has information that a .'signifi-
cant movement is being inaugurated
that, if carried out, will elect q ma
iority of the FiftY-first Congress
and the President and Vice-Presi.
dent" The journal then proceeds
to outline this "movement." which
is simply to unite all the anti-re
publican and anti-democratic fac
tions under one banner for the de-
feat of the old parties. Twenty
six semi-political reform associations
are named, as the Woman's Suffrage,
the Anti-Poverty, the Knights of
Labor, and so on. 1t is held that
if the union can be effected it will
be comparatively easy matter for
the third party to pluck the persim-
mon while the two old organizations
are hunting for long poles.
1t is a characteristic of all politi-
cal reformers that they are more or
less visionary. The other day we
listened long aud wonderingly to a
cold water enthusiast who was as
confident and convinced as a man
could we'll be, that in 1892 the Pro-
hibitionists will elect the next Pres
ident of the republic, and that i'm
mediately thereafter there will be
practical prohibition throughout
the United States. The gentleman
was intelligent, and was in no sense
a crank-he was simply visionary
and speculative. There is posi-
bility that within four years the
temperance vote will double itself,
and bring two or three States un-
der so-called temperance rule, but
that the Prohibitionists will elect
the President in 1892, or in this
century, is among the utter impos-
sibilities.
So with the scheme outlined
above. 1t is idle to suppose that
the inharmonious elements enume.
rated as "reform" parties and as
sociations could be brought togeth-
er and induced to work in CON-
mon cause, that cause being the
overthrow of the old political par
ties. And if this improbable if not
impossible thing could be done,
what would it amount to ? Simply
nothing. All the "reform" votes
combined would not disturb the old
organizations.
But the new party would be
charmer, and as interesting as it was
beautiful. The combination would
give Dickens ample scope for his
powers of describing the grotesque
and ridiculous. The sight would
be so comical that one almost re-
grets that the scheme is such wild
and fanciful one that it can never
be realized.

The swarms of "vagrom" ours
that infest the city are at all times
q nuisance, but especially at this
season, when for so many people
sleep can only be obtained by throw
ing open the windows of bed-cham-
bers. Besides, the presence of these
animals is a constant menace, even
laying aside all fears of hydropho-
bia, and steps ought to be taken by
the City Council to rid the city of
such pests.
